As I mentioned before it’s hard to believe that Splatoon 2 is celebrating its first anniversary. To celebrate Nintendo devised a special Splatfest asking players to choose between Team Octo or Team Squid. Those who chose Team Octo were granted the ability to play as one. It was actually Team Squid who took the win, 2-1. Well done to everyone who participated regardless of which side you chose!

Supposedly the odds were stacked against team octopus, so this isn’t surprising
Odds were stacked against them? Even though Team Octopus had more members?
From what I’ve been told (I don’t play the game), the team with more members ends up fighting their own team more often than the other team. Because same team victories don’t add to your total, you end up just wasting a bunch of time and points leading the other team to an easier victory
Come on, stop with this nonsense. There was only 11% difference in votes and due to how matchmaking in splatfests works the best from the larger team are granted the ability to fight with the other team, therefore if the 11% that didn’t have a chance to fight inklings had the chance inklings would have probably won by even bigger percentage.
how so? im a vet of the fist game and was on team octo. I didnt battle my team once…and by the way you get point for battling your own team
No idea. Just saying what I’ve heard repeatedly
So you didn’t participate in the fest. Heck u don’t even play the game and here you are posting “from what I’ve been told”
Yes. Because it’s what I’ve been told by people who have played the game since launch. I never even stated I did play the game or claimed that I was super knowledgeable; it was a statement purely based off knowledge from my friends and others. I dunno if the data was outdated even, but it was what I was told a while ago, and as someone who’s not played the game (and not at all interested in fact checking because I don’t play the game) there was no reason for me to doubt this info. Simple as that
I chose Team Squid because I just resonated more with them.
Ah yeah, I was worried as it seemed for the most part that all the teams I was on was losing and there was always that team member at the bottom with very little production in terms of splats and being splat. I was having to much fun to care though (not that I’m great at the game either lol)
I usually lose and then my team wons, so I guess it more depends on the elite players on the top, but this Splatfest was different, all matches against Octos and we won 54% of them.

Fortnite sucks! #TeamSplatoonTFW!
WHYYY?!?! OCTO RIGHTS, PEOPLE!!!
are you 12 ?
Octolings are unwanted invaders to our country that take our jobs in Grizzco and abuse our technologies. Our victory is truly welcome.
I don’t know how to respond to that…
Then don’t, simple as that.
This dude doesn’t know anything about Nintendo or it’s games.
Like don’t even start about Splatoon lore and it’s history. He just wanna fanboy durr derp derp MU NINTENDUUUU
Xenophobic comments like this made me wish I was on Octo team.
Amen to that WetWaluigi
Yeah, I played against more octos than squids. Kinda hard to play against an opposing team when the matchmaking matches you against your team.
I like both with rice and sauce
